Once Upon a Time RECAP For March 17, 2013: Season 2 Episode 17 “Welcome to Storybrooke”

Tonight on ABC our favorite docu-fantasy ONCE UPON A TIME returns to ABC Tonight with a new episode called, “Welcome to Storybrooke.” On last week’s episode Cora’s desire to rid herself of Rumplestiltskin in order to take his place as The Dark One took one step closer to becoming reality as she and Regina tried to overpower a dying Mr. Gold, and Mary Margaret was once again tempted by dark magic.

Meanwhile, in the fairytale land that was, Rumplestiltskin agreed to offer his services to a younger Cora – for a price – when the king called her bluff and orders her to actually follow through on her boast of being able to spin straw into gold. Did you watch the last episode? We did and we recapped it here for you!

On tonight’s show Emma, David and Mr. Gold must protect Mary Margaret against Regina, who is out for revenge and has made it her mission to kill Mary; and Henry, fed up with all of the feuding, devises a plan to put an end to magic.

Meanwhile, Regina discovers that a father and son have somehow found their way into her allegedly undetectable town as she and the fairytale characters deal with the effects of the newly cast curse 28 years prior.
